DC Health (Department of Health) Forms and Documents

DC Health (Department of Health) is the District of Columbia’s government department focused on health. Its official name identifies it broadly as a public health department.

About the DC Health (Department of Health)

The current collection associated with DC Health includes two different document types. The District of Columbia Birth Certificate Application Form is an application concerning a birth certificate. The separate Recommendation Form is not identified by its title as to what is being recommended or who should complete it, so check the form and the issuing agency’s guidance rather than assume it serves the same purpose as the certificate application. Do not assume the recommendation form is part of a birth-certificate process simply because both forms appear on this page.

English and Spanish versions are shown for both forms. This is a limited collection of published forms associated with DC Health, not necessarily a complete inventory of the department’s documents. Before using either form, verify the current version and agency instructions. Check details such as required information, supporting materials, fees, deadlines, and submission methods with the issuing agency, since the form titles alone do not establish those requirements.
